What Drill & Tap Costs
Usually a small line item on a bigger job, but quoted standalone too:
- Labour: Drilling $1–$4 per hole depending on size and material; tapped holes $2–$8 including the tap
- Setup: $30 flat — often waived when added to a laser or machining job
- Typical range: A 20-hole tapped pattern on a laser-cut plate adds roughly $40–80 to the job
Add it to your laser cutting or CNC quote and the AI prices the whole job at once.
Do It in One Quote
Most customers upload a part that needs laser cutting AND holes AND maybe a bend. Our AI handles the whole geometry in one quote — no juggling three suppliers for one bracket.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you tap holes in laser-cut parts?
Yes — this is one of our most common combined jobs. We laser the profile, then drill and tap the hole pattern in the same run.
What thread sizes do you handle?
From #4 machine screws up to 3/4" and M16, imperial and metric, blind or through holes.
Do you add tapped holes to customer drawings?
If a hole is shown as a simple circle, we'll tap it to your specified size — just note the thread spec in the description.
Is there a minimum order?
No. One bracket with four tapped holes is a perfectly normal quote.
